Why are you still in business?<BR/>Any other industry (other than banking) and you would have been laughed into early penury/retirement.<BR/><BR/>The US should make zero cars. Much like they now make zero Hoovers and zero power tools (thanks Techtronic), zero semiconductors (should be zero, not quite: but good effort by TSMC, SMIC, CHRT), zero call-centres (thanks India) etc...<BR/><BR/>You don't need skills to wield a wrench, you need arms and hands, something in abundant supply in China, CEE and India.<BR/>You certainly shouldn't be paid $50k+ for doing something that is better done by machine or a monkey.<BR/><BR/>Wait... am I still talking about UAW members or Wall Street...
